You know Scott Westerfeld from the bestselling Uglies series. You followed him through the Locus Award-winning steampunk Leviathan series. Read Peeps, So Yesterday, The Midnighters series, Afterworlds, Horizon, and the Zeroes series, Next up: Spill Zone, a twisty sci fi graphic novel adventure set in the very near future.

Spill Zone is illustrated by animator Alex Puvilland who was born in France, works for Dreamworks Animation, and co-illustrated Prince of Persia and Templar.

Three years ago an event destroyed the small city of Poughkeepsie, forever changing reality within its borders. Uncanny manifestations and lethal dangers now await anyone who enters the Spill Zone. The Spill claimed Addison's parents and scarred her little sister, Lexa, who hasn't spoken since. Addison provides for her sister by photographing the Zone's twisted attractions on illicit midnight rides. Art collectors pay top dollar for these bizarre images, but getting close enough for the perfect shot can mean death or worse.

When an eccentric collector makes a million-dollar offer, Addison breaks her own hard-learned rules of survival and ventures farther than she has ever dared. Within the Spill Zone, Hell awaits and it seems to be calling Addison's name.

We can't wait to welcome Scott Westerfeld back to Kepler's for Spill Zone. Join us!
